Depression, huh?

I've been wondering about that. What is it that makes depression depression and not just a bad week...or month...or year. Did some research. Seems like half of them I might've experienced and half of them I definitely haven't. So, does that mean I'm half depressed? That's sorta like saying you can be almost pregnant. Nope. Doesn't work. No pregnancy. No depression. I did take some tests though. Authentic Happiness Index: 57. CES-D Scale: 18. VIA Signature Strengths Survey: Industry, diligence and perseverance. So... Apparently, I'm moderately depressed. Interesting... Well, at least I'm not severely depressed. I'm going to eat biscuits with my husband now.
